It's an interesting debate: modernity vs tradition... but just last night we had a bottle of wine in which the cork had reacted with the wine... maybe plastic would have been better...

Very practical when camping or out on a boat - no risk of cutting yourself if you drop the "bottle". Besides it is also less heavy to carry home from the shop! Why not wine out of a fancy Tetra Pak?

I could now claim that you're so right and it was all intentional, but the sad truth is, I didn't even notice until I published the post... ;) Sebastian, Nice one!

Geist Winery in Würzburg, signed with „dd” (not „pp”, because you never say that to a good wine in Germany) and of course not sealed with a glass stopper (imagine the harms on Silvester!). Yeah, they showed you this stopper later and let you discuss about it while drinking the stuff all by themselves, until it was to late to get it at your favourite food shop. But I have won my bottle now! Have a good rausch-rush-rutsch.

Totally ok with a 2005 white wine which is light bodied; but heavier, stronger wines which are meant to get old won't be happy with these "complete-stoppers" like glass or silicone...
